The "I think I know what happened to my brother" Reddit post is so emo.

The deeply emotional post — titled "I think I know what happened to my brother" — has left many (including us) in tears. The OP recalled an older man coming to his house and saw him hugging and kissing his brother. A few days later, the Redditor's brother left and never got here again.

"All these years — decades — later, and I think he was in love with that man. I know he was," the Redditor wrote. "I think my brother left with that man, and they ran away together."

As he were given older, the Redditor gained mail that he believed was from his brother — however he never responded. He stated his brother's disappearance destroyed his circle of relatives (or so he thought). As it seems, his oldsters found his brother; they had been disgusted that he used to be gay, telling him they — and the Redditor — did not want to see him.

The Redditor eventually were given his brother's telephone quantity and speak to data from the police, and the two had an emotional reunion that included meeting each and every different's spouses and youngsters. In the top, the Redditor formally lower ties along with his homophobic parents and moved his circle of relatives around the nation to be closer to his brother.

The post has generated a plethora of responses, with many in the comments expressing how happy they're that the brothers found their long ago to each different after all this time.

"This one made me tear up. I can't express how happy I am for this family," one person said. Another added that they had "tears running down my cheeks." A third Redditor wrote, "I can't ever imagine turning away my babies. How could you possibly hate your child because of who they love? Just so sad."

"I just cried so much," a fourth person shared. "There's so much of this story that a lot of us other Americans can see in our own families, but man, these guys are grown and all I can think is, 'Those poor, poor boys.' They missed so much and were more than let down by their parents — the people who were supposed to love and protect them."

On the other hand, some believe the story is made up.

"Lol, nothing in this is real. Every sentence is something out of a creative writing exercise," one Redditor stated, whilst someone else added that "everything sounds like the perfect setting for a story."

"I would like to believe this is real because it's such a happy ending for someone, but some of the details are just too extreme; it's Hollywood stuff, not things people do in real life," any other Redditor claimed. "The brother immediately jumped on the plane, [with] no luggage and didn't even tell his husband and children, no text or anything? Come on."

What do you suppose? Did the tale bring you to tears, or used to be it too far-fetched? Let us know!
